Kolkata Knight Riders once again dominated on Chinnaswamy's ground. Shreyas Iyer's team unilaterally defeated RCB by 7 wickets. The home team bowlers failed miserably to defend the huge total of 183 runs. Captain Shreyas Iyer looked elated after the second consecutive win in IPL 2024 and praised Andre Russell and Sunil Narine.
What did Captain Iyer say after the victory?
"Shreyas Iyer said after the win against RCB, "We were in good shape from the last match. After coming on the field and hitting some balls, one feels comfortable inside. The way Russell came in he realized that the wicket didn't have much for the bowlers. After that, he started bowling the ball at a slow pace. The way Russell assessed the conditions immediately was eye-catching. Our conversation was amazing."
The KKR captain further said, “See when Narine comes to open, he knows that his job is to clear the infield. Today we were deliberating whether to get Narine to open or not, but he performed brilliantly. In a way, it was easy to bat. However, there was another pace in the wicket from the other end. We discussed this in the middle of the field and passed this information on to others as well."
KKR registered a spectacular victory
KKR cheerfully achieved the target of 183 runs given by RCB in just 16.5 overs. Sunil Narine along with Phil Salt gave a blazing start to Kolkata and added 86 runs for the first wicket in just 6.3 overs. Narine played a stormy inning of 47 runs facing just 22 balls. At the same time, Venkatesh Iyer, who came to bat at number three, scored 50 runs in 30 balls. Captain Shreyas Iyer also remained unbeaten after scoring 39 runs in 24 balls.
